If condition to check one file newer than the other - first file name uncertain
Dear All,
I'm new to unix scripting. I'm trying to write an utility script which has to check if one file is newer than another one. The condition is I dont know the full name of the first file. I searched google and this forum for any such examples, but couldn't find any or may be I would have missed it.
I wrote this simple check using if, but it is not working.
If i give a definite file name, it prints "file found", but when I use an *, even if the file is present it says "file not found"
I will have to use the wildcard charcater * bcoz each time the text following "xyz" is different.
Could anyone please tell me how to fix this.
Your help is much appreciated.
Thanks

Hi
I am writing a script file which sends the log files along with their size in a folder named log to a file called temp.log using the following cmd:
ls -st 190_GSTV_HUX_003QISCGSK026** >> /home/user/temp.log
the temp.log looks like this:
16 190_GSTV_HUX_003QISCGSK026_message070321.log

I know how to check if any file has a unix process using a file by looking at 'lsof <fullpath/filename>' command.
I think using lsof is very expensive. Also to make it accurate we need to inlcude fullpath of the file.
Is there another command that can tell if a file has a truely active... (12 Replies)
This should be a simple script, but can't find one with google search.
I just need to find the file that is in many directories, then overwrite that file with a newer version i.e.
find file.jar then overwrite with /root/file.jar
All I get in searches is substitute text with new test inside... (1 Reply)

I only want the file copied if it is newer. But it still copies the file?

WarpTensorImageMultiTransform - part of ANTS registration suite
DESCRIPTION
WarpImageMultiTransform ImageDimension moving_image output_image [-R reference_image | --tightest-bounding-box] (--reslice-by-header)
[--use-NN (use Nearest Neighbor Interpolator)][--ANTS-prefix prefix-name | --ANTS-prefix-invert prefix-name] {[deformation_field | [-i]
affine_transform_txt | --Id | [-i] --moving-image-header / -mh | [-i] --reference-image-header / -rh]} Example: Reslice the image: WarpIm-
ageMultiTransform 3 Imov.nii Iout.nii --tightest-bounding-box --reslice-by-header Reslice the image to a reference image: WarpImageMulti-
Transform 3 Imov.nii Iout.nii -R Iref.nii --tightest-bounding-box --reslice-by-header Note: -i will use the inversion of the following
affine transform. --tightest-bounding-box will be overrided by -R reference_image if given. It computes the tightest bounding box using
all the affine transformations. --Id uses the identity transform. --moving-image-header or -mh in short will use the orientation header
of the moving image file. This is typically not used with --reslice-by-header.--reference-image-header or -rh in short will use the ori-
entation header of the fixed image file. This is typically not used with --reslice-by-header.--reslice-by-header uses the orientation
matrix and origin encoded in the image file header. It can be used together with -R. This is typically not used together with any other
transforms. --reslice-by-header is equvalient to -i -mh, or -fh -i -mh if used together with -R.
For ANTS users: To use with the deformation field and the affine transform files generated from ANTS: --ANTS-prefix prefix-name --ANTS-pre-
fix-invert prefix-name Example: 3 moving_image output_image -R reference_image --ANTS-prefix abcd.nii.gz Applies abcdWarpxvec.nii.gz/abcd-
Warpyvec.nii.gz/abcdWarpzvec.nii.gz and then abcdAffine.txt. Use this with ANTS to get the moving_image warped into the reference_image
domain. 3 reference_image output_image -R moving_image --ANTS-prefix-invert abcd.nii.gz --ANTS-invert Applies the inversion of
abcdAffine.txt and then abcdInverseWarpxvec.nii.gz/abcdInverseWarpyvec.nii.gz/abcdInverseWarpzvec.nii.gz. Use this with ANTS to get the
reference_image warped into the moving_image domain. Note: prefix name "abcd" without any extension will use ".nii.gz" by default
